Grammy-winner Lizzo has been at the center of lawsuits alleging sexual harassment, discrimination, and creating a hostile work environment. The lawsuits became public knowledge in August 2023, and since then, have been the source of much criticism against the singer. Just last month, a judge denied her request to toss out one of the lawsuits. It is speculated that majority of that case will go on to trial later this year. On March 30th, the singer took to her Instagram account and posted a statement saying she “quit.” On April 2nd, Lizzo took to her Instagram account again to clarify…

Books, while containing vast stores of knowledge, have had an interesting history when it comes to their construction. The binding methods would become extremely creepy in the 19th century, when some books were bound in human skin. We’ve seen the “Evil Dead” franchise, and we KNOW not to mess with books bound in human skin. The fine folks at the Harvard Library however, chose to go against that notion. On March 27th, the Harvard Library chose to remove the human skin binding from a 19th century book. The book, “Des Destinées de l’Ame” by Arsène Houssaye,” has been in the…

Is there anyone in the year 2024 who doesn’t own a smartphone? To put it in technical terms, there is an estimated 6.94 billion smartphones worldwide. That is roughly 85% of the 8 billion estimated global population. So now the real question to ask is, how many smartphone users have an iPhone? We’re not hear to start the age old iPhone vs Android debate. In fact, we have some news Apple won’t be happy about. The US Department of Justice (DOJ) is suing the tech giant over claims of “illegally monopolizing the smartphone market.” The DOJ is joined in the…

When it comes to anything involving zombies in this day and age, there are certain expectations of horror and gore. At least, if you want whatever zombie show or movie to be considered good. Let’s be real here, current zombie expectations are not suitable for all ages. While “Marvel’s What If…?” zombie episode was watered down, it was still pretty creepy. Perhaps it was creepier than most parents would approve for their children to watch. And when it comes to the “Marvel Zombies” animated show, we don’t have good news for parents. The highly anticipated “Marvel Zombies” will not be…

Tom Hardy must feel like one cheeky boy. Not only has he managed to turn “Venom” into a trilogy, but he more than likely named the third installment. When he confirmed filming was actually happening, Hardy referred to “Venom 3” as “The Last Dance.” We speculated that this could be the actual film title. Turns out…it is! “Venom: The Last Dance” will be hitting theaters this October, instead of the previously listed November 8th. The date change is an intriguing choice. Had the film released on November 8th, it would have released with 20th Century Studios’ “The Amateur.” Now it…

Former heavyweight boxing champion “Iron” Mike Tyson is often considered one of the best professional boxers in the world. Tyson was such a menace in the ring that he was dubbed “the Baddest Man on the Planet.” This moniker is backed by the 50 wins in his 58 match career, 44 of which were knock outs. Not to mention being the undisputed world heavyweight champion from 1987 to 1990. Though he officially retired from the world of boxing in 2005, he plans on stepping back into the ring soon.
